New Products WAFIOS FUL 226 CNC Spring Coiling Machine
The FUL 226 from WAFIOS is the company’s first high-end spring coiling machine to produce cold-coiled compression springs made of high-strength wire of up to 22mm diameter and a tensile strength of 2,000MPA or from mild steel wire of up to 30mm and a tensile strength of 800MPA. The modular design offers the most flexible application possibilities and includes a wide range of options, like the “PTP” coiling finger for initial tension control during the production of springs.
The FUL 226 features a new dual-coil pay-off unit, resulting in less downtime and minimum setups. The unit features all the familiar advantages of WAFIOS’ “FUL” series which includes the company’s programming system “WPS 3.2” and numerous “iQ” functions for optimizing processes, like “iQautopitch” for the automatic correction of the diameter and pitch while setting up a spring, or “iQcontrol” for in-process spring length measurement. “iQspring2FUL” for automatically generating a spring program after scanning in a reference spring is a new feature that has been added.
The machine is ideal for producing larger suspension springs that are used in electric vehicles and technical springs with large diameters.

New Portal for U.S. Manufacturers
Manufacturers across the country are joining together to improve the U.S. economy by domestically producing products and promoting them on a new platform that showcases products made in the USA. MadeInUSA.com offers U.S. manufacturers a robust platform to promote products through an easy-to-use vendor portal which allows manufacturers to upload product images, pricing and descriptions for free.
While there is no cost to join, the rewards are significant. MadeInUSA.com offers a drop-ship model, and collects and pays all sales tax and shipping costs. The manufacturers only need to do what they do best, which is build and ship products.
Products may be listed as “Made in USA,” “Made in USA with Domestic and Global Components,” or “Assembled in the USA,” and businesses may identify as Minority, Women, Veteran or Small Businesses owned, which can increase eligibility for grants and tax benefits.
